The title compound, C10H11BrN2O3, exhibits a small twist between the amide residue and benzene ring [the C—N—C—C torsion angle = 12.7 (4)°]. The is stabilized by weak N—H⋯O, C—H⋯Br and C—H⋯O interactions. These lead to supramolecular layers in the bc plane.

The initial reagents were purchased from Aldrich Chemical Co. and were used as received. In a 100 mL round bottom flask 4-nitroaniline (3.258 mmol, 0.450 g), triethylamine (0.653 mmol, 0.066 g) were mixed, then a solution of 2-bromo isobuturyl bromide (0.704 g) in anhydrous THF (5 mL) was added drop wise, under an argon stream. The reaction was carried out in a dry bag overnight under magnetic stirring. The solid was filtered off and dichloromethane (20 mL) added to the organic phase which was washed with brine (40 mL) followed by water (10 mL). The solution was concentrated at low pressure affording colourless crystals and recrystalized from a solution of hexane and ethyl acetate (80:20). M. pt. 356 (1) K.
The H-atoms were placed geometrically [C—H = 0.95 Å for aromatic & C—H = 0.98 Å for methyl], refined in the riding model approximation with Uiso(H) = 1.2–1.5Ueq(C). The N-bound H atom was refined freely.

Geometry. All esds (except the esd in the dihedral angle between two l.s. planes) are estimated using the full covariance matrix. The cell esds are taken into account individually in the estimation of esds in distances, angles and torsion angles; correlations between esds in cell parameters are only used when they are defined by crystal symmetry. An approximate (isotropic) treatment of cell esds is used for estimating esds involving l.s. planes. |
Refinement. Refinement of F2 against ALL reflections. The weighted R-factor wR and goodness of fit S are based on F2, conventional R-factors R are based on F, with F set to zero for negative F2. The threshold expression of F2 > 2sigma(F2) is used only for calculating R-factors(gt) etc. and is not relevant to the choice of reflections for refinement. R-factors based on F2 are statistically about twice as large as those based on F, and R- factors based on ALL data will be even larger. |

The title compound, (I), forms a part of a synthetic programme that the Polymer Research Group of Universidad del Valle is pursuing in order to obtain compounds that act as initiators of reactions in polymerization processes. Compound (I), Fig. 1, belongs to a series of polymeric ATRP (polymerization by atom transfer radical) initiators (Pietrasik & Tsarevsky, 2010); most initiators for ATRP processes are alkyl halides (Matyjaszewski & Xia, 2001). The C4—N1—C5—C6 torsion angle is 12.7 (4)°, indicating a small twist between the benzene ring and the amide. An intramolecular C—H···O interaction is observed (see Table 1).
In the crystal structure, weak C—H···O and N—H···O intermolecular interactions are detected (Table 1). In a first substructure (Fig. 2), molecules are linked by C7—H···O1i contacts (i: -x+1/2,-y-1/2,-z) which leads to the formation of dimers with graphs-set notation, R22(14) (Etter, 1990). In turn, N—H···O interactions link the dimers running along the c axis. The N1 atom acts as hydrogen bond donor to O3ii (ii: -x+1/2,+y-1/2,-z+1/2). In a second substructure, C10—H···Br (Table 1) interactions provide further links between the dimers. Overall, the crystal structure comprises layers in the bc plane (Fig. 3).
